Purely plant based

Aromatic Alchemy and the power of the Olfactive

Catalyzing my passions, desire to learn from nature and the plant kingdom at a very early, impressionable age, I began exploring the treasure chest of botanical gems in this temperate rainforest on the East coast, delving deeper into my ancestry, my story unfolds.

I discovered my intuitive gifts intertwined beautifully with my love for botanical palettes, aroma botany, story telling and my personal experience and research with scents and their ability to offer grief support.

Adept in the science and art of blending, aroma chemistry, anatomy & physiology, botany as it relates to artisan perfumery, my knowledge began to deepen and expand as did my desire to create inspire and uplift. I have curated scent stories to expand my passions and inspire you through scent.

I lovingly and proudly create my own packaging design, graphics, labels and respective holders to reduce the amount of natural resources used to ship items.

Natural perfumery vs. Aromatherapy

Absolutes, are the most potent plant material available in Natural perfumery, unparalleled in both scent, complexity and longevity. Compared to volatile essential oils, most medicinal in nature and requiring careful consideration when used in large quantities, I only use them sparingly for this reason, if at all.

Plant-based absolutes are my preferred material, highly valued and still therapeutic in quality. By sourcing my ingredients directly from a certified organic small business supplier I trust, once you sample them, you will understand how prices reflect the quality, purity and potency, as well as time involved.

Purity

All botanical palettes are completely free of synthetics and parabens. Imbued with purely plant based ingredients. Exquisite quality plant extracts that use organic extraction methods, without the use of hexane in absolutes, ethically sourced sustainable harvesting methods. Always cruelty free. Curated meticulously with detail and intention.

What is Natural perfume

Purely plant-based, my line is curated with certified organic ingredients, hand harvesting methods using sustainability in plant selection and carefully converted to potent plant materials called absolutes. I source directly from a trusted small business supplier. Always cruelty free. Free of parabens and synthetics.

Absolutes leave long lasting impressions and are wonderful to work with. Unlike essential oils, that have higher evaporation rates and require cautious application, absolutes are the finest result after waxes and solids are removed from plant substrate, leaving a pure concentrated liquid that is truly amazing in complexity of scent and completely natural.
